With the departure of naturalized player Li Ke, only Jiang Guangtai is left as a naturalized player in the 27-man squad of the Chinese men's football team's overseas training camp. Among the many naturalized players who left, the fans miss the most is Luo Guofu who dared to fly to block the gun's eye, the strong bison, and the Luo Guofu who said that he would not withdraw no matter what the circumstances were after Goulart announced his renunciation of Chinese nationality.
Born in 1988, in 2014, because of his outstanding performance, Luo Guofu was introduced by Shandong Luneng, and after joining Shandong Luneng, Luo Guofu quickly scored the first goal of the AFC Champions League in Shandong Luneng. In his first season with Luneng, Luo Guofu scored 10 goals in 27 appearances and four goals in seven FA Cup appearances. In 2015, Luo Guofu scored 22 goals in 28 games, which also made Luo Guofu targeted by Huaxia Happiness.
After spending three years in Shandong Luneng, Luo Guofu switched to China Happiness in 2016 and scored six goals in 11 games in his first season. In his second season, Lo scored 14 goals in 26 games. His outstanding performance in the Chinese Super League allowed Luo Guofu to be treated as naturalized, and he also received hundreds of millions of yuan in income. But to be honest, compared with other naturalized players, Luo Guofu is actually very dedicated, but Li Tie was unwilling to give them a chance back then.
After the gold bubble burst, Luo Guofu returned to Brazil and joined América Mineiro, and in the league of América Mineiro, Luo Guofu also delivered a good performance. However, on December 7, at the end of the season, Luo Guofu rejected América Mineiro's contract extension and chose to become a free agent.
There are two theories, the first is that the 35-year-old Luo Guofu is tired and wants to retire. The second is that Luo Guofu wants to return to the Super League, because the Super League makes more money. Recently, because Shandong Luneng has left a number of foreign aids, Luo Guofu, who has played in Shandong Luneng for three years, has also been involved with Luneng again, but so far, Shandong Luneng and Luo Guofu have not responded to the two holding hands again.
Although he was temporarily out of contact with Shandong Luneng, Luo Guofu signed a cooperation agreement with a well-known youth training base in China and became the star mentor of the youth training base. I believe that seeing Luo Guofu's choice, the former captain Zheng Zhi will also be happy with Luo Guofu's choice, because Zheng Zhi has previously expressed the hope that more people will invest in youth training in the future to boost Chinese football, and now Luo Guofu has done it.
